Volunteering
A volunteer helps make their community a better place. Through Crisálida, Glasswing's volunteering program, we have individuals dedicating their time almost every day of the week. From helping a child learn, to painting at a community center, volunteers use a little of their free time to make a big difference.
How do I volunteer?
Our program aims to be the link between committed individuals and organizations where they are able to use their strengths and interests to make a profound difference. We provide opportunities that make volunteering fun and easy.
